Should be able to, but they have to be pressed out/in. Many places that sell the bushings offer this service.

Can the front lower control arm bushings be replaced in a 2005 Dodge Neon without replacing the control arms?
Yes, but be aware that if you are not a ASE certified mechanic or have one that you trust...I wouldn't do it. Of course you can go out and buy the bushings, which is cheaper, but unless you have a good mechanic...I wouldn't recommend it. Iam doing the same thing right now with my 2001 neon. And I just bought the whole control arms. Cause the control arms consists of the bushings and the ball joints. So its good just to replace the whole thing. But if your looking for the cheaper option, then that's one to go with. But as I said, be aware that the bushings can be destroyed when trying to install the new ones, if your not careful. Good Luck! (Note: If your wanting to know the price of a whole control arm...its $99 at autozone or you can buy some refurbed control arms for about $65. each.)

How do you replace the lower ball joint on a 99 ranger sport?
Unfortunately, the entire lower (or upper - I forget) control arm has to be replaced when the ball joints need replacing. In any case it's not something I was willing to tackle in my driveway. Even if you could, you'd have to get the front end re-allighned. I had mine done professionally. Done in one day....and $850.00 later. I had both drivers side and passengers side done, uppers and lowers. Otherwise nobody will guarantee the reallighnment. You can replace the lower and upper balljoints without replacing the entire control arm and you can do it in your driveway.you will need a ball joint removal tool /ball joint compresser tool which is available at autozone . it is not that hard to do,there are several sights where the job is explaned in detail.you will need to get the front end alligned afterward.if your vehicle has a awful lot of miles on it say 200000 or more you will want to change the control arm bushings as well as the ball joint or replace the entire control arm with ball joint and bushings included.replacing the entire control arm ,upper and lower is probably the best way to go but it is also the most expensive . if you are replacing your balljoints for the first time at say a 100000,your bushings should still be OK..I replaced my upper control arm with balljoint and bushings because it is easier ,however I replaced just the lower ball joints,total parts cost 250.00 , allignment cost not included.The job took about 6 hours
Can the solenoid be changed without replacing the starter on a 2000 Mercury Couger?
It "CAN", but why would you want to? The contacts in the solenoid wear at about the same rate as everything else inside the starter. If the solenoid is bad you'll be better off just replacing the whole thing because the brushes or bushings will be going next then you'll get to remove/replace the starter again.

How do you replace the front sway bar bushings on a 1995 Dodge Intrepid?
When the sway bar try's to do it's job without the bushings then it will come in contact with the body of the car and will be an confortable ride that could causes more problems in the future.

Can you replace the AC clutch on a 2004 Honda accord without replacing the compressor?
My car is going through the same issue with the A/C. You CAN replace the compressor clutch without replacing the compressor, but the caveat is that you can't tell if the compressor is any good without a clutch. So basically you are gambling that the compressor will still be good by only replacing the clutch. Hope this helps!
